Almost 75% of Ole Miss fans said LSU was our biggest rival. 24.5% said Mississippi State.
However, 95.7% of State fans said OM was their biggest rival.


Great link.

Only 13% of LSU fans by that survey regard Ole Miss our biggest rival (numbers that don't seem contradicted by this thread at least).

Great rivalries (think OU-Texas [90%+ for each], OSU-Michigan [96%+ for each]) seem to have symmetry between them.

It's at best a secondary rivalry if 87% of your opponents' fan base doesn't regard you to be their top rival.

Right, and the same link reveals that while 60.5% of LSU fans regard Alabama as their biggest rival, only 0.07% of Bama fans think the same. That's a MUCH bigger disparity. Just saying.
